31.08.2007 Presented NEST2 at the parallel computing conference Euro-Par 2007. Our paper was among the 89 papers selected for presentation from 333 submissions:
H. E. Plesser, J. M. Eppler, A. Morrison, M. Diesmann, and M.-O. Gewaltig.
Efficient parallel simulation of large-scale neuronal networks on clusters of multiprocessor computers
is now published in A.-M. Kermarrec, L. Bougé, and T. Priol (Eds): Euro-Par 2007, LNCS 4641:672-681, 2007.
(Reprint, Preprint)

21.08.2007 Simulated a network of 1 million neurons connected by 2.5 billion synapses with NEST2 on the 96 CPU Hathor cluster at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience, Freiburg.

15.06.2007 Research Council of Norway awards eScience grant for eNeuro: multilevel neural simulation and modeling to the Computational Neuroscience Group at UMB and its collaborators at University of Oslo.

06.12.2006 A. Morrison, S. Straube, H. E. Plesser, and M. Diesmann.
Exact Subthreshold Integration with Continuous Spike Times in Discrete Time Neural Network Simulations
is now published in Neural Computation 19:47-79, 2007.

26.01.2006 Created an experimental LaTeX Beamer class implementing UMB's new graphical profile.

14.11.2005 Back from parental leave.

06.10.2005 Paper with Gaute Einevoll on Response of the difference-of-Gaussians model to circular drifting-grating patches published in Visual Neuroscience 22:437-466 (2005).

14.02.2005 Express version of the NEST kernels achieves linear speedup from 1 through 8 processors on Caspar, simulating a Brunel network with 12600 neurons and 16 million synapses with irregular asynchronous firing around 35 Hz.
